meritocracy

The opposite is true

The debate between diversity and meritocracy often overlooks a key point which is it's not just about qualifications or ticking boxes. I think diverse teams bring fresh perspectives, challenge group thinking, and ultimately leads to better decision-making. And in environments where diverse voices are represented, organisations are more agile and innovative, better equipped to solve complex problems. While merit is crucial, true leadership lies in reflecting the communities they serve, ensuring a range of lived experiences is brought to the table. Embracing diversity isn't about compromising standards, it's about broadening them to recognise different forms of excellence. Send me an e-mail and let me what you think?
